their class game on the campus this after
noon. In spite of the cold weather, the
game was we'll PLAYED and exciting through
out. In accordance with an old custom, the
Seniors yelled for the Sophomores, the
Juniors for the Freshmen The game was
won by the Sophomore's bv score of nine
to FIVE. By winning, the class team of 80
scores its second victory, as it easily defeated
80 last year. In consequence of the absence

game, and are much depressed at its result.
To make their defeat less bitter, the Juniors
give them supper at Crocketts tonight.

The reports of the Sovereign Grand Lodge
of Odd Fellows for the past year show the
present membership to 100000, an increase
of 1890 over last year. The amount of
mo5ey expended by Lodges and Encampments
for the relief of members and their families
during the year was 50, 227 1874 so. Partial
returns from Mutual Relief Associations
show an additional payment to the widows
and orphans of deceased members during the
year of 81 1850, ,069 so. The present member
ship in Rebekah Degree Lodges is 67,29l,
gain of 9,266 over last year. 1t is difficult to
get an adequate conception of these sums of
money; they are truly enormous. But it
must not be inferred that the pecuniary relief
of its members in the only, or the principal
feature of the Order. 1t is however the
feature whose workings and effect are most
visible to the outside world. Truly that
band whose motto is Friendship, Love and
Truth" and whose primary command is "to
visit the sick, relieve the distressed, bury the
dead and educate the orphan" is power for
good in the land.
